Cranium
This lobe of the cerebrum is responsible for allowing light to make contact with the retina, making vision possible.
The Occipital Lobe
This protein structure is responsible for covering the active sites the actin molecule, while the muscle is at rest.
Tropomyosin
Differentiate between the terms: motor neuron and motor unit.
A motor neuron is a nerve that receives impulses from the brain, travels through the nerve and then reaches the muscle fiber. A motor unit is a motor neuron and the muscle fibers that it innervates.
This cranial nerve functions by to control tongue movement from side to side.
Cranial Nerve XII (12) Hypoglossal Nerve
This is a role a muscle "plays", when it performs the opposite action of the primary movement.
Antagonist
The Frontal Lobe
This section of the sarcomere is identified by overlapping of action and myosin filaments.
The A-Band
Nerves that are responsible for transmitting messages from the brain to the rest of the body are properly termed...
Efferent nerves
This cranial nerve has both motor and sensory responsibilities, and it helps control both cardiovascular and respiratory functions.
Cranial Nerve X (10) Vagus Nerve
The least movable part of a given joint is located at the...
Origin
This component of the brain is known as the midbrain. It houses the thalamus and the hypothalamus.
The Diencephalon
Which muscle tissue property represents stretching a muscle (A) and that muscle returning to its normal, resting position after the stretch (B)?
This division/component of the central nervous system is responsible for carrying messages to the skeletal muscle fibers
Somatic Nervous System
This cranial nerve functions by controlling the movement of the eyes upward and downward.
Cranial Nerve III (3) Oculomotor Nerve
The name of this tissue layer is responsible for covering or surrounding each fascicle...
Perimysium
The sensory processing center of the brain, which includes the processing of senses such as touch, taste, and temperature is called...
An oxidative-glycolytic muscle fiber is one that relies on what/which fuel sources?
This is a IIa fiber: It relies primarily on oxygen and glycogen/glucose for energy.
These specialized cells function specifically to support neurons.
Microglia (Astrocytes, Schwann Cells, Microglia, Oligodendrocytes, Ependymal)
This nerve is responsible for controlling the movement of the shoulders as if to say, "I don't know".
Cranial Nerve XI (10) Accessory Nerve
A muscle that is fusiform is best described by what characteristic(s)?
It's a muscle that has a central belly but tapers on the ends.
This component of the brain is responsible for controlling/regulating heart rate, and pleasure, along with controlling the flow of information from the brain to the body.
The Brain Stem
Identify each of the primary methods by which muscles are named in the body.
Name (Appearance, Shape, Number) , Location, Function
Differentiate between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems.
The sympathetic nervous system is the fight or flght system and the parasympathetic nervous system is the rest and repair system
Cranial Nerve IV (4) Trochlear Nerve
Differentiate between the terms: tendon and aponeurosis.
A tendon connects muscle to bone, while an aponeurosis connects muscle tissue to other muscle tissue.
